Welcome to The CnC Edit, your backstage pass to the work we do for brands. In this issue, we are highlighting our work with Aarya Hotel & Spa. The heritage hotel that serves as a portal to a living museum and world-class hospitality.

The Strategic Approach

The website is as authentic & layered as the hotel itself, bringing together its Newari heritage, beautiful spaces and rooftop experience into one cohesive story.

  • The Heritage Hotel: Positioned hotel around its rich Nepali and Newari heritage, craftsmanship.
  • Craft in the Details: Highlighted intricate woodwork, traditional artistry, & beautifully crafted interiors.
  • Rooms with a View: Used bright, sun-filled imagery to capture the spacious rooms, big windows, & mountain views.
  • Life on the Rooftop: Brought the pool, skywalk, and outdoor lounge experience to life through immersive visuals.
  • Straight to Booking: Integrated Staah Booking engine directly into the website, for guest reservation.

The Creative Approach

Aarya’s website has its signature earthy tones, rich wood textures, & Newari heritage to create a warm digital experience.

  • Earthy at Heart: Kept Aarya’s earthy palette and woody character consistent throughout the design.
  • Flowers in the Details: Used floral motifs as icons, pointers, and subtle visual accents.
  • Let the Experience Speak: Combined imagery and video to bring the hotel experience to life.
  • The Chiki Jhya Touch: Brought Aarya’s iconic Chiki Jhya pattern into the digital experience.
  • Inspired by Newari Architecture: Used traditional architectural patterns to create distinctive section transitions.

Project Takeaways:

Here are key takeaways from the Project with Aarya Hotel & Spa:

  • Heritage Creates Character: Cultural elements give brands depth beyond modern design alone.
  • Details Build Identity: Small, intentional details make digital experiences feel more distinctive.
  • Culture Can Be Digital: Traditional patterns and craftsmanship can shape contemporary digital experiences.
